Industrial Ethernet<br />

Industrial Ethernet <strong>for</strong> <strong>photovoltaic</strong> <strong>systems</strong><br />

Active <strong>and</strong> passive components <strong>for</strong> efficient networking in your<br />

<strong>photovoltaic</strong> <strong>systems</strong><br />

The aim of using components from the Industrial Ethernet branch, is that all<br />

devices within a system network together using just one bus technology <strong>for</strong><br />

the whole system. Thereby process data <strong>and</strong> diagnostic functions can be<br />

exchanged independently of the device between the network participants,<br />

<strong>and</strong> also centrally monitored <strong>and</strong> controlled. <strong>Weidmüller</strong> offers <strong>for</strong> the<br />

networking of PV <strong>systems</strong> a comprehensive line of active <strong>and</strong> passive<br />

networking components.<br />

This consists of the following individual components:<br />

• Unmanaged <strong>and</strong> managed switches<br />

• Media converters<br />

• Power-over-Ethernet Switches<br />

• Industrial wireless components<br />

• Serial/Ethernet converters<br />

• Plug-in connectors <strong>for</strong> copper <strong>and</strong> fibre optic transmission<br />

Media flexibility<br />

Media converters <strong>for</strong> conversion<br />

between copper <strong>and</strong> glass fibre<br />

media as well as <strong>for</strong> bridging larger<br />

distances <strong>for</strong> applications over a<br />

wide area.<br />

Investment protection<br />

Serial/Ethernet converters allow access to<br />

components with serial interfaces over<br />

the Ethernet network, like controllers,<br />

measuring devices or inverters <strong>for</strong><br />

example.
